Enzo Fernandez’s rapid opener inside nine minutes came from Pedro Neto’s stunning breeze past Ian Maatsen.

Malo Gusto and Reece James couldn’t cope with Rashford – who looked like a different player from his recent woes at Old Trafford.
Rashford provided two assists for fellow January signing Marco Asensio to leave Chelsea with two Prem wins from nine games.
Here SunSport’s Graham Hill gives his Chelsea ratings from a booming Villa Park.
FILIP JORGENSEN – 4
Horrible error for Villa’s late winner as Asensio’s shot squirmed under his body – ironically he had made a crucial save before that.
MALO GUSTO – 6
Failed to get a decent touch on Cash’s ball – and that led to Villa’s second half equaliser. Struggled to deal with Rashford’s presence.
TREVOH CHALOBAH – 3
The defender suffered a huge blow as he had to come off after just six minutes clutching his ribs following a challenge from Asensio.
LEVI COLWILL – 6
Found himself with a new central defensive partner early in the game and looked uncertain at times.
MARC CUCURELLA – 6
Defending Chelsea’s left flank was not as troublesome as the right hand side, and the Spaniard looked stylish as Villa applied more pressure
REECE JAMES – 6
Stepped in for the injured Noni Madueke and took the captain’s armband, had a good battle with Cash.
ENZO FERNANDEZ – 6
Right place, right time to open the scoring, a real threat early on, took a booking for the team, lucky to escape a second
MOISES CAICEDO – 7
Provided a strong presence in midfield, spotted danger early and halted a number of Villa raids.
His second-half ball should have provided Chelsea with their winner
COLE PALMER – 6
Largely quiet game but wasted his chance to win the game when he collected a Caceido through ball – but stumbled – that allowed Konsa to clear the shot
PEDRO NETO – 7
Great work for the opening goal as he left Ian Maatsen standing before crossing to find Fernandez.
CHRIS NKUNKU- 5
Hugged the left touchline, should have been involved more, not as much of a threat as Neto, subbed with 14 minutes to go.
SUBS
TOSIN ADARABIOYO: (for Chalobah, 6mins) – 6
Needed some time to fit in at the back after Chalobah’s injury.
JADON SANCHO: (for Nkunku, 76mins) – 5
Did little to affect the game after coming on for an ineffective Nkunku.
